London Philharmonic Orchestra

the Orchestra takes up its annual residency at Glyndebourne Festival Opera, where it has been Resident Symphony Orchestra for over 50 years. The Orchestra also tours internationally, performing to sell-out audiences worldwide. In 1956 it became the first British orchestra to appear in Soviet Russia and in 1973 made the first ever visit to China by a Western orchestra.

One of the finest orchestras on the international stage, the London Philharmonic Orchestra balances a long and distinguished history with its reputation as one of the UK’s most forward-looking ensembles. As well as its concert performances, the Orchestra also records film soundtracks, releases CDs and downloads on its own label, and reaches thousands of people every year through activities for families, schools and local communities.

The London Philharmonic Orchestra has recorded many blockbuster film scores, from The Lord of the Rings trilogy to Lawrence of Arabia, East is East, The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey and Thor: The Dark World. It also broadcasts regularly on television and radio, and in 2005 established its own record label. There are now over 100 releases available on CD and to download. Recent highlights include Shostakovich’s Symphony No. 11 and Mahler’s Symphony No. 8 under Vladimir Jurowski; a commemorative box set of historic recordings with former Principal Conductor Sir Adrian Boult; and works by Richard Strauss under Klaus Tennstedt, featuring soprano Jessye Norman.

The Orchestra was founded by Sir Thomas Beecham in 1932, and has since been headed by many great conductors including Sir Adrian Boult, Bernard Haitink, Sir Georg Solti, Klaus Tennstedt and Kurt Masur. In September 2021 Edward Gardner became the Orchestra’s Principal Conductor, succeeding Vladimir Jurowski, who became Conductor Emeritus in recognition of his transformative impact on the Orchestra as Principal Conductor from 2007–21. Karina Canellakis is the Orchestra’s current Principal Guest Conductor and Brett Dean is the Orchestra’s current Composer-in-Residence.

In summer 2012 the London Philharmonic Orchestra performed as part of The Queen’s Diamond Jubilee Pageant on the River Thames, and was also chosen to record all the world’s national anthems for the London 2012 Olympics. In 2013 it was the winner of the RPS Music Award for Ensemble.

The Orchestra is resident at the Southbank Centre’s Royal Festival Hall in London, where it gives around 40 concerts each season. It also enjoys flourishing residencies in Brighton, Eastbourne and Saffron Walden, and performs regularly around the UK. Each summer

Pieter Schoeman

The London Philharmonic Orchestra is committed to inspiring the next generation of musicians, and recently celebrated the 30th anniversary of its Education and Community department, whose work over three decades has introduced so many people of all ages to orchestral music and created opportunities for people of all backgrounds to fulfil their creative potential. Its dynamic and wide-ranging programme provides first musical experiences for children and families; offers creative projects and professional development opportunities for schools and teachers; inspires talented teenage instrumentalists to progress their skills; and develops the next generation of professional musicians. The Orchestra’s work at the forefront of digital technology has enabled it to reach millions of people worldwide. Over the pandemic period the LPO further developed its relationship with UK and international audiences through its ‘LPOnline’ digital content: over 100 videos of performances, insights, and introductions to playlists, which collectively received over 3 million views worldwide and led to the LPO being named runner-up in the Digital Classical Music Awards 2020. From Autumn 2020 the Orchestra was delighted to be able to return to its Southbank Centre home to perform a season of concerts filmed live and streamed free of charge via Marquee TV.

Leader

Pieter Schoeman was appointed Leader of the London Philharmonic Orchestra in 2008, having previously been Co-Leader since 2002. He is also a Professor of Violin at Trinity Laban Conservatoire of Music & Dance. Pieter has performed worldwide as a soloist and recitalist in such famous halls as the Concertgebouw in Amsterdam, Moscow’s Rachmaninov Hall, Capella Hall in St Petersburg, Staatsbibliothek in Berlin, Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles and London’s Royal Festival Hall. As a chamber musician he regularly appears at London’s prestigious Wigmore Hall. His chamber music partners have included Anne-Sophie Mutter, Veronika Eberle, Patricia Kopatchinskaja, Boris Garlitsky, JeanGuihen Queyras, Yannick Nézet-Séguin, Martin Helmchen and Julia Fischer.

September 2021 saw the opening of a new live concert season at the Royal Festival Hall, featuring many of the world’s leading musicians including Sheku KannehMason, Klaus Mäkelä, Renée Fleming, Bryn Terfel and this season’s Artist-in-Residence, Julia Fischer. Looking ahead to its 2022/23 season, the Orchestra is delighted to be continuing to offer digital streams to selected concerts throughout the season through its ongoing partnership with Intersection and Marquee TV.

Pieter has performed numerous times as a soloist with the London Philharmonic Orchestra. Highlights have included an appearance as both conductor and soloist in Vivaldi’s Four Seasons at the Royal Festival Hall, the Brahms Double Concerto with Kristina Blaumane, and the Britten Double Concerto with Alexander Zemtsov, which was recorded and released on the LPO Label to great critical acclaim.

Ádám Fischer conductor

Fischer also embarked on a completely new path in 2006, when he founded the Wagner Days in Budapest: together with Gábor Zoboki, architect of the Palace of Arts, he realised his idea of performing Wagner’s work in a concert hall in which the entire hall is included in an allround artistic experience. The Budapest Wagner Days, under Ádám Fischer’s artistic leadership, have established themselves as a world-class Wagner opera festival dubbed the ‘Bayreuth on the Danube’ by The New York Times. As Principal Conductor of the Düsseldorf Symphony Orchestra, in 2015 Ádám Fischer embarked on a Haydn/Mahler cycle, which was received with international enthusiasm. In addition to excellent reviews in the media, his Mahler recordings with the orchestra received the 2019 BBC Music Magazine Award and the 2019 Opus Klassik Award for best orchestral recordings of the year.

Born in Budapest, Ádám Fischer is one of the leading conductors of our time. In 1987 he founded the Österreichisch-Ungarische Haydn Philharmonie with musicians from his two home countries, Austria and Hungary, and at the same time, the Haydn Festival in Eisenstadt as an international centre for the performance of Haydn’s music.

Ádám Fischer regularly uses his platform to share important messages about humanity and democracy. The Human Rights Award of the Tonhalle Düsseldorf, which he has presented every year since 2016, is testimony to this. For his commitment he has received the renowned Wolf Prize from the Wolf Foundation in Jerusalem, and a Gold Medal in the Arts from the Kennedy Center, Washington. He has been a member of the Helsinki Committee for Human Rights for more than 20 years.

Whether in Bayreuth, at the Metropolitan Opera or at the Teatro alla Scala in Milan; whether with the Vienna or Berlin Philharmonic, the Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment or at the Salzburg Festival, Ádám Fischer is recognised by audiences and musicians alike as a mediator between music and the outside world. He acquired his profound understanding of the opera world by taking the classic career path from répétiteur (Graz) to General Music Director (Freiburg, Kassel, Mannheim and Budapest). His international breakthrough came in 1978 when he took over the baton from Karl Böhm, conducting Beethoven’s Fidelio at the Bavarian Staatsoper. Since then he has been a guarantor of thrilling evenings at leading opera houses all over the world. His closest links are with the Vienna Staatsoper, where he was appointed Honorary Member in 2017.

As well as his regular activities with the Düsseldorf Symphony Orchestra, the Danish Chamber Orchestra and the Budapest Wagner Days, highlights of Fischer’s 2021/22 season include Mozart’s Così fan tutte at the Maggio Musicale Fiorentino, opera engagements at the Hamburg Staatsoper, and a concert version of Wagner’s Parsifal with the Danish National Symphony Orchestra, as well as concerts with the Berlin Philharmonic, the Vienna Symphony (among others at the Musikverein and the Hamburg Elbphilharmonie), and with the Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment at the Royal Festival Hall.

When he became Chief Conductor of the Danish Chamber Orchestra in 1998, Fischer found the ideal partner for his innovative ideas. Together, over many years of collaboration, they have been able to develop their very own individual style. With award-winning recordings of all Mozart’s symphonies and complete Beethoven works, Fischer ventured into new territory in terms of musical interpretation, to enthusiastic international acclaim.

Ádám Fischer is an Honorary Member of the Musikverein für Steiermark in Graz. He holds the honorary Austrian title of Professor and has received the Order of Dannebrog from the Queen of Denmark. He lives with his family in Hamburg, Berlin and Budapest.

Helen Charlston

Mariam Battistelli

mezzo-soprano

soprano

Award-winning Italian soprano Mariam Battistelli was born in Ethiopia. Her performing breakthrough came when she performed as Il Paggio in Rigoletto under Zubin Mehta in Mantua, alongside Plácido Domingo and Ruggero Raimondi.

Acclaimed for her musical interpretation, presence and ‘warmly distinctive tone’ (The Telegraph), Helen Charlston is quickly cementing herself as a key performer in the next generation of British singers. Tonight is her debut with the London Philharmonic Orchestra.

During her studies at the Centre Perfeccionament Plácido Domingo (Palau de les Arts Opera Studio) in Valencia, Mariam made debuts in many roles including Juditha in Vivaldi’s Juditha Triumphans, conducted by Federico Maria Sardelli and directed by Davide Livermore. She also sang the role of Euridice in the world premiere of The Opera! at the Royal Opera House Muscat.

Helen won first prize in the 2018 Handel Singing Competition, and was a finalist in the Hurn Court Opera Competition and the Grange Festival International Singing Competition. She was a ‘Rising Star’ of the Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment from 2017–19 and a 2018 City Music Foundation Artist. In 2021 she joined Le Jardin des Voix Academy with Les Arts Florissants, and the BBC Radio 3 New Generation Artists scheme, and was winner of the Ferrier Loveday Song Prize in the 2021 Kathleen Ferrier Awards.

First Prize winner at the International Ottavio Ziino Singing Competition in Rome, Mariam Battistelli has also won major prizes at the International Maria Callas Competition Verona and the International Franca Mattiucci Competition. Following these triumphs, in 2018 she was invited to join the Vienna State Opera, where she remained a member of the company until summer 2020 and where she debuted many important roles such as Musetta in La bohéme, Gretel in Humperdinck’s Hänsel und Gretel and Pamina in Die Zauberflöte; she also worked with outstanding conductors including Christian Thielemann, Ádám Fischer and Speranza Scappucci.

Recent and upcoming concert highlights include Handel’s Messiah with BBC NOW and the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra; Bach’s Christmas Oratorio with Casa da Música; Judas Maccabaeus with the RIAS Kammerchor; her debut at the Palau de la Música in Barcelona for Bach’s St Matthew Passion with the Gabrieli Consort and Players; a worldwide tour of Handel’s Messiah with the Seattle Symphony, the Western Australian Symphony Orchestra and the Adelaide Symphony Orchestra; and solo recitals at Wigmore Hall, Cheltenham Music Festival, Leeds Lieder, York Early Music Festival, London Handel Festival, Händel-festspiele Halle, Korčula Baroque Festival, Leicester International Music Festival and Fitzrovia Festival.

Mariam Battistelli recently sang Norina in Don Pasquale for Glyndebourne Touring Opera, and will appear at this summer’s Glyndebourne Festival as Musetta in La bohème. Tonight is her debut with the London Philharmonic Orchestra.

London Philharmonic Orchestra on Marquee TV • 21 May 2022 • Mozart’s Requiem

Programme notes Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart 1756–91

Requiem, K626 1791 Completed by Franz Xaver Süssmayr (1766–1803) and others Mariam Battistelli soprano Helen Charlston mezzo-soprano Ilker Arcayürek tenor James Newby baritone London Philharmonic Choir Requiem aeternam – Kyrie – Dies irae – Tuba mirum – Rex tremendae – Recordare – Confutatis – Lacrimosa – Domine Jesu – Hostias – Sanctus – Benedictus – Agnus Dei – Lux aeterna The text and translation begin on page 13. facts appear to be relatively simple. The messenger was an envoy from one Count Walsegg von Stuppach, a wealthy amateur who was in the habit of commissioning pieces of music, having them performed at his house, and jokingly maintaining that they were his own. After Mozart’s death, his widow Constanze needed money fast, and looked to her husband’s pupils to help her fulfil Walsegg’s order. In the end the bulk of the necessary completion work fell to one of them, Franz Süssmayr.

The last few months of Mozart’s life were astonishingly busy. Between August and November 1791 he premiered the operas La clemenza di Tito and The Magic Flute, produced a Clarinet Concerto for his friend Anton Stadler and composed a cantata for his masonic lodge. It is little wonder, then, that he was sluggish in his fulfilment of a commission received back in July for a Requiem Mass. The unusual circumstances of the commission may also have had something to do with it; apparently he had received it via a ‘messenger in black’ who refused to reveal the identity of the man who had sent him, only that he was a gentleman prepared to pay well for music to commemorate the loss of a loved one. Mozart did not begin the work until October, by which time he was already ill with what was probably an untimely concurrence of several long-suffered chronic conditions, all aggravated by exhaustion. On 20 November he took to his bed, and in the early hours of 5 December died, with the Requiem still unfinished. Much myth has grown up around these events, but the

Mozart’s manuscript shows us that the only movement of the piece he himself composed in full (in the sense of writing it out in full score) was the Requiem aeternam. The other movements up to and including the Hostias were composed in outline, often just the vocal parts, with the more mechanical job of orchestration left for later. This task Süssmayr undertook (although some of it had already been begun by two other Mozart pupils), before going on to compose his own Sanctus, Benedictus and Agnus Dei, complete the Lacrimosa

London Philharmonic Orchestra on Marquee TV • 21 May 2022 • Mozart’s Requiem

Programme notes Mozartian qualities that have enabled it to speak to listeners with such power and force. For all that the composer had once written to his father that death ‘holds nothing terrifying for me’, there are many moments in his music when the opposite seems to be true, when the grave is glimpsed with evident fear and horror, and nowhere is this more the case than in the Requiem. But if there is a palpable sense of dread in movements such as the Dies irae or the Confutatis, there is consolation, too, in the Recordare and the Hostias. And in the opening Requiem aeternam with its sepulchral basset horns and bassoons and its noble soprano solo, heaven and the tomb are surely viewed in close proximity.

(of which Mozart had only written the first eight bars), and finally take the traditional course of recasting music from the opening as the concluding Lux aeterna. It is a situation that has left some listeners admitting to a feeling of discomfort when listening to the Requiem. Süssmayr was a moderately talented composer, perhaps working in a hurry on a task which (ironically) he must have thought would bring him little notice. Yet Constanze recalled that Mozart left him a number of verbal instructions concerning the completion of the Requiem, perhaps even of how to proceed in the missing movements. How much of the work, then, is Mozart’s and how much his? We will never know, and the immediate result is that the piece has been treated to much editorial ‘revision’, ‘improvement’, ‘correction’ and even ‘recomposition’ down the years. Tonight’s performance makes use of Süssmayr’s original completion.

The Requiem did eventually find its way to Walsegg, who had it performed in December 1793 amid no more than a half-hearted pretence that it was his work. In the meantime, parts of it had been heard only five days after Mozart’s death, at a memorial service organised by his friends at St Michael’s Parish Church in Vienna. He deserved nothing less.

The truth is, of course, that Mozart’s Requiem has made its way in the world perfectly well for over 200 years in what is in considerable part Süssmayr’s completion, and that in any case it is its immediately recognisable

O Lord Jesus Christ, King of Glory, deliver the souls of the faithful departed from the pains of hell and from the deep pit; deliver them from the mouth of the lion, that hell may not swallow them up, and they fall not into darkness;

Domine Jesu Christi, Rex gloriae, libera animas omnium fidelium defunctorum de poenis inferni et de profundo lacu; Iibera eas de ore leonis: ne absorbeat eas tartarus, ne cadant in obscurum;

Quartet sed signifer sanctus Michael repraesentet eas in lucem sanctam;

but may the holy standard-bearer Michael bring them into the holy light;

Chorus

which Thou didst promise of old to Abraham and his seed.

quam olim Abrahae promisisti et semini ejus.

Hostias Chorus

Hostias et preces tibi, Domine, laudis offerimus. Tu suscipe pro animabus illis quarum hodie memoriam facimus. Hostias et preces tibi, Domine, etc. Fac eas, Domine, de morte transire ad vitam. Quam olim Abrahae promisisti et semini ejus.

We offer unto Thee, O Lord, sacrifices and prayers of praise: do Thou receive them on behalf of those souls whom we commemorate this day. We offer unto Thee, O Lord, etc. Grant them, O Lord, to pass from death to life. which Thou didst promise of old to Abraham and his seed.
